If it was the future, then I wonder about Frog's prescence there. Perhaps he would join earlier. Maybe it's part of a cutscene somewhen else. I don't think the text next to the picture gives context. From what little I can understand, it seems to talk about "party of 3 members", and lists a few of the characters. I see the words Girlfriend (or just Girl Friend? Hard to tell), Frog, and Robot there, alongside Crono's name.
It's not placeholder. The top name is Tatakau, which means more or less "Battle" of "Fight". It's the standard Attack command. The bottom name is Item, also self-explanatoru. Now, for the middle names, the box of the left has Renkei, which means like "Cooperation" or "Link". While the other two are "Waza", which is "Skill" or "Ability". Respectively, they're the Combo and Tech commands. So no, it all points that was finished.
In fact, form the context of the text in the first image, it sounds like it's explaining the Renkei commands. As in, the Double/Tripple techs. Perhaps the only thing we can question is why only one of the Tech's turns into Combo if, well, Double/Tripple Techs would imply at least one other character would have Renkei, not Waza.
